In Between Days

Thursday.
We got up and got ready to shop for the weekend food. This time we got the 33 and went to Gamston to Morrisons. Not too busy and we got what we needed. A few ignorant shoppers as always in there, walking into you, reaching over you, and blocking aisles. There and M&S in Bridgeford are worst. 
Anyway that done we got back and put it all away... 
I was thinking as you do, about being thankful, being as it was Thanksgiving Day for my US friends, how many times are we truly grateful for what and who we have in our lives? I know lives are busy, and I'm as guilty of it as anyone. But we really are lucky in lots of ways. Kev and I are lucky because we have a permanent home, and we actually like where we live, yes it has a few drawbacks transport wise, but we live somewhere quiet and very near to woodlands and countryside. We have our health, yes we both have our niggles, but overall if we look after ourselves we can do pretty much what we want to. My mobility isn't as good as it was, granted, but I've worked hard to get as much movement back as I can. Thanks to determined efforts from me. I'm grateful for having Kev by my side to help and encourage as much as he does. 
I'm also grateful for the family and friends we have. Some have always walked this path of ours alongside us, some are more recent to our journey. All are very welcome. And most importantly I am grateful for the chance to look after and love Willow... She is so adorable and loving... 
So, stop for a moment and think about what you are thankful for... You'll find what you have far outweighs what you don't...
